More than 211,500 nappies donated to families in need this Mother’s Day
More than 211,500 nappies were donated and distributed through our Mother’s Day Collective this year, delivering immediate and practical relief to Australian families in need.
Over two weeks in May, we called on the community to give as many nappies as they could to local families who are struggling to afford them. With mums at the heart of our campaign, our call was met with amazing support – more than 500 collection points and over 120 volunteers jumped on board to collect, sort and pack donated nappies.
These nappies have since been passed on to families through our network of nearly 200 community partners and family support services, helping those facing financial difficulty, homelessness, escaping domestic violence or seeking refuge.
